Personally I much prefer the Linux Software RAID as it is much easier to
deal with a failure or a change of the controler card.

Problem is with most is that they are "fake" raid cards that actually
require the host to process. This effectively means "software RAID".
You can already do this just using 2 drives on whatever controllers your
MB already has if you really wanted. Now if you want REAL RAID.. well
that costs.... Real cards = less headaches. Its treted as 1 drive.
To everything. No screwups, no direct-acccessing a member drive
directly (got hit with this once myself)

Hi,
Want to put a RAID card in my home server running CentOS, any
recommendation on low-cost that will give less head-ake? I know LSI
works GREAT, but don't want to shelf out 300$ for one...
